position 59:27N 18:42E tied up to a small jetty in
Ingmarso
We met Eva in Greece She had sailed her tiny yacht,
a Halberg single handed from Svartso through the rivers and canals to the Black
sea and the Bospheros and Dardenelles .the engine(3.5 HP) was broken,the
exhaust leaked fumes, the forstay was hanging off and the rudder about to. She
had no money .We got the engine going and repaired the exhaust. In return Dave
got a massage! We met again in Ibiza where her yacht was on the hard The
shipyard managed to drop her whilst lifting her out. The rudder had fallen
off> Dave fixed it and got another massage! Eva continued her
adventure,sailing to Brazil and up the Amazon returning to the Carribean.The
Rudder finally fell off and she was rescued and the boat sank.Now Eva lives in
Svartso and runs a Hostel. With herfriends we had a great reunion with dancing
and singing. We then sailed round to Svartso again anchoring and backing onto a
small jetty .We were aground! We partied into the early hours I thought
Norwegian day was wild but wow the Swedes can match them! Saturday we said
goodbye and set off for Landsort.
